So quick back story, my engine was fully submerged in freshwater. I pulled sparks so no hydrolock. Drained oil and replaced filter. Rinsed 5 times with oil .until all water was gone. New sparks and she's been running great. Since the submerging all summer I have done a lot of trolling and down rigging for kokanee..this is where my problems arise. Gas in my oil..I decided to try my jet pump which has kept my speed perfectly for downrigging..I put say 40 hrs on that be4 I switched back to prop. I read up on making oil and so I decided to change oil more frequently about 30 hrs..so 3 times since July 2016. Then I started WOT be4 trolling and after. Still having issues, although the boat is running great! More forum research led me to possible torn diaphragm in my fuel pump. 1 and 2 spark plugs have grey soote on them. 3 and 4 sparks look absolutely perfect.. this led me to my fellow boaters..help !!
